But will it have the coffee-making/croissant warming facility that I want on it?

Makes me wonder how many have actually been installed in staffs in the first place.
I've not seen any posts of anyone around here with one installed so maybe VM is rolling it out region by region?

Can anyone confirm that if VIP customers are having Tivo installed in place of a V+ box, they can then have this box replacing a VHD box in another room, at NO EXTRA COST.

They are not getting automatically, this is all we know to this date:

Dear Mr,

It has been confirmed today, that if a VIP 50 customer who takes TiVo in their main room and wishes to keep their V+ box in their second room (returning the V HD) - they will incur no additional cost.

You will only be charged £10/month extra if you keep both your existing boxes after the TiVo box is installed i.e. you have 3 boxes (The TiVo, V+ and V HD)

Regards,

Not sure if this covers all the VIP Customers.

OR should i not post this as people are getting the gist of this:confused::confused::confused:

Well I got my ticket today too, woohoo! Guess I'll ask them to refund my £149 if I win!

BTW, to those saying they want the box now and it's unfair... if you get it, things are missing (eg. some catch up stuff via the backwards search), 3rd tuner etc. or it's full of bugs, would you complain? If the answer is yes then you need to wait. The box isn't officially launched for a reason, it's not quite ready... yet. Close, but not quite. I've field tested VM code and like to hammer things to find bugs, plus I understand it's not ready and that's fine by me, hence I don't mind paying now.

So if you don't want a potentially buggy box with missing features, then wait for the official launch!
